Timoni currently does not have a CI/CD setup. Below are recommended next steps for integrating Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment into the project.

Next Steps for CI/CD Setup

1. Continuous Integration:

   • Implement tests in your Makefile. Utilize the test target within your Makefile to ensure that all unit tests pass before moving forward with deployment.

   test:
       go test -v ./...
   

   • Set up a CI service (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.) to run these tests automatically on new commits or pull requests.

   Example GitHub Actions configuration (.github/workflows/ci.yml):

   name: CI
   
   on: [push, pull_request]
   
   jobs:
     build:
       runs-on: ubuntu-latest
   
       steps:
       - name: Checkout code
         uses: actions/checkout@v2
   
       - name: Set up Go
         uses: actions/setup-go@v2
         with:
           go-version: '1.17'
       
       - name: Run tests
         run: make test
   

2. Continuous Deployment:

   • Create a deployment script to publish the Timoni bundles as OCI artifacts whenever there is a change to the main branch. Use the timoni artifact push command as defined in the Timoni documentation.

   # deploy.sh
   #!/bin/bash
   
   set -e
   
   # Build the module
   make build
   
   # Publish the artifact
   timoni artifact push -f ./path/to/your/bundle --tag latest --sign
   

   • Extend your CI configuration to trigger the deployment script on successful tests: Example addition to the GitHub Actions configuration:

   jobs:
     deploy:
       runs-on: ubuntu-latest
       needs: build
       if: github.ref == 'refs/heads/main'
   
       steps:
       - name: Checkout code
         uses: actions/checkout@v2
   
       - name: Deploy Timoni bundle
         run: ./deploy.sh
   

3. Environment Management:

   • Define application delivery across multiple clusters using the Timoni Runtime. To effectively manage deployment across environments, create a bundle-runtime.yaml configuration file that specifies your cluster groups.

   Example bundle-runtime.yaml:

   runtime:
     clusters:
       - name: cluster1
         context: context1
       - name: cluster2
         context: context2
   

   • Ensure that your Makefile includes a command to apply the bundle with the defined Runtime:

   apply:
       timoni apply -f ./path/to/your/bundle-runtime.yaml
   

4. Monitoring and Rollback:

   • Integrate health checks and end-to-end tests within your deployment flow. You can leverage the capabilities of Timoni as it connects to each cluster post-deployment and performs health checks.
   • Configure an automated rollback mechanism in case of deployment failures, integrating it into your CI/CD tool of choice.

With these steps in mind, the CI/CD framework can be structured robustly to handle the deployment requirements of the Timoni project.
